Spring has indeed sprung in Minnesota, and it is, without a doubt, the best season of the year here.  However, as I'm just over halfway through my (last) semester, instead of enjoying the long(er), warm(er), sunny(er) days,  I'm finding ways to bring spring to me as I sit inside, staring out the window over my casebooks, and pouting.

I've been obsessed with flats lately, and as the weather has turned warmer, it seems like brightly colored and embellished flats are everywhere.  They're the perfect way to make the transition from winter to spring: cute, easy, and summery without showing toe.

Oh, fabulous flats. Where have you been all my life?
